I managed to turn the negative heat temperature in to something positive by introducing co2 to the environment. As a result of the diy co2 method some of branches grew up by 1.5 inches in 2days! Will continue to utilise co2 in the box for now. I also had to adopt the defoliation method Way to many leaves could cause problems by raising the moisture level in the box. As a result of the defoliation a lot of light is reaching the bottom of the box. Which means I can grow other small plants in the box. I switched to bloom NPK ratios. Slowly introducing the raw mix. It’s doing fine and as allways no tip burns

I thought this would be flowering by now! Should I switch to 12-12 lighting hours Or should I just keep it at 24?

Hi mate is at all possible the seed got mixed up? I haven't heard of autos vegging that long as that would defeat thier purpose. Switching to 12/12 will not make an autoflower flower it will flower when its ready but if indeed you have been given a wrong seed that is a photoperiod strain switching to 12/12 will make it flower and thus solve your question. Hope this helps 😀

How can I guarantee a cutting becomes a hermaphrodite mini plant to make more seeds?

I can't really tell from the photos if your plant is a Hermie. The only thing you can do at this point is just keep growing her way past harvest to see if she will Hermie. But you are better off taking that pollen and pollinating another clone that has just entered flower. She might not be in good enough health to produce good seeds that late in her cycle. Colloidal silver is a good option to force pollen but it has to be started at the first sign of flower.

@smo4smo, you are correct it’s deffo not an auto ! But I’m quite impressed with the genetics of this plant, looking forwards to a decent harvest in about 10 weeks!

@Techpuffin,true but autos wouldn't really look like ur plants either

@DILLIGAF, I thought so too. I’m going to take a 48 h time lapse video to see if it’s true.

Here they will b photo auto are a timed thing it does everything itself and u would not need to change lighting in order to start flowering they do it themselves

@smo4smo, that’s true I feel a bit ripped off by Royal queen seeds. I will never buy autos from them again!

I run my autos on 18/6 I think 24 hour is too intense.

@Fruitgrower, your suggestion is great if only I had time to experiment with it Unfortunately they were ment to be autos but sadly I don’t think they are I’m going to fully flip them 12-12 and keep an eye 👁️ on them to see if any crowns develope.

@Techpuffin, I would try 5/7 days on 18/6 and if that fails flip it to 12/12 maybe it is not an auto.... 🤔

@Fruitgrower, thanks I think you are right I will switch it to 18-6 I’m just surprised at the size of this plant

Hi @Techpuffin! Obviously that baby is not an auto, but the good thing is that you have a wonderful plant which will become a real monster once flipped into flowering! I think you have no other choice than to switch your light schedule to 12/12. These things happen, it's not a common thing, but it happens. Happy growing, enjoy your monster! 👊

@Stick, thanks for the encouragement I had my suspicions It was not. I don’t mind growing photos and I’m deffo looking forwards to the harvest of this plant. Just a bit disappointed that I specifically picked autos for my first grow and was sent these instead To be honest with you I’m not sure if it will even b a stress killer CBD strain.

@Techpuffin Hi mate If you look at my RQS diary one of my autos has taken forever to start flowering too and has only just started to show preflowers as I see yours have them showing now aswell. We are also both on a 24 schedule is that correct? maybe their genetics do'nt like that lighting schedule?? just a thought regarding the issue we have been discussing.

@DILLIGAF, I get you when you say stable environment A bit like people right? I’m having to switch off the light during the day as it’s getting too hot! I just adjusted the driver on the led light to run lower at 160w It was on 235w It has sorted out the over heating But I made this for the winter time to be kind of a heater for the room as well!

@Techpuffin, I am still on the 24/0 schedule because if I turn the lights off the temps drop too low stresses the plants It's winter here 10-15 celcius max temps 😱 When the temps remain stable everything seems to run smoother as well

Hey tech. I hope I answered your question. Feel free to message me if you had any more questions about forcing pollen. Good luck getting those seeds!

Bud switch ur lights to 12 12 it will start to recover ur cocking it under 24 light bud needs it wen a seed no good for it now
Techpuffin
Techpuffin
@smo4smo,thanks I’m going to switch to 18on 6 off Maybe that will help. maybe royal queen seeds gave me a wrongly labelled seed? Or maybe I did something to make it continue to grow for longer. The seedlings started off with only direct sunlight for the first 2weeks on a window sill Since introducing the light I noticed it still wakes up at the same time as sunrise!
